Editorial Reviews

Review

"...clearly explains the complexity of water resources in a highly engaging and thorough manner..."(Water Resources Development, Vol.19, No.1, 2003) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Publisher

This book/CD package takes an active learning approach to human geography. Computerized activities expose readers to GIS, spreadsheets, simulation and graphing--without having to learn four different complex software packages. The exercises explore AIDS, population growth, jobs, environmental change, baseball and other interesting topics. This book teaches readers how to collect, analyze, interpret and present information. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just your average textbook, September 13, 2008
By 
M. Loveland (Seattle, Wa USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This textbook is just your average textbook. For my class we had to buy an online code for the course which included the book all online, but comparing the two, I find the book much easier to read and review. The pictures help out and the author goes at a good enough pace as to where I can keep up and understand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Review of Human Geography text book, July 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
it arrived in good time and was in excellent condition. the only problem i had was that i thought it was a text book and instead it was a lot of hole punched papers for me to put in a binder.
